Safety

• Handle your scale with care - it is a precision instrument.
• Use the scale on a firm and level surface
• Operate the unit only within the permissible ambient conditions.
• Do not operate the unit in hazardous or unstable environments.
• Clean with a dry cloth, do not use harsh cleaning agents.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water or other liquids.

Installation and Use

Zero setting

Before you can use the scale for the first time, you must adjust the zero point manually.

• Place the scale on a flat and solid surface.
• After transport and setting up, the movable parts of the scale must first move to their respective initial positions. You can accomplish that by operating the scale and stepping onto the platform and down again several times.
• For setting the zero point, however, the platform must be clear.
• Adjust the scale by turning the dial above the display to the left or right until the pointer on the dial points exactly to zero.
• The scale is ready for operation now.

You should repeat the procedure from time to time so you can be sure that you always get the best results. Proceed as described above. This is particularly important whenever you move the instrument to a new place / different surface.

Operating the scale

• Step onto the platform of the scale.
• Be sure to place your feet in the centre of the platform. The distances between your feet and the edges of the platform should be more or less the same on all sides. Try not to move.
• Wait until the pointer stops moving.

The pointer will always tremble a little because it is impossible to stand absolutely motionless on the platform. However, the error is minimal. You may be confident to have a precise enough result at all times.

Note: To get reliable statistical weighing results take your weight every day at the same time.

Cleaning and maintenance

Cleaning and Storage

• For cleaning just take a damp cloth or common disinfection products.
• Do not use any aggressive cleaning fluids.
• In order to achieve a long lifetime of your scale, make sure no water or fluids can penetrate and keep the scale away from high humidity or direct heat or sunlight.
